Ciencia Singular 2020

In the first virtual edition of Ciencia Singular, CiTIUS proposes an innovative format for visiting the Center through a live event on YouTube hosted by the renowned science communicator Javier Santaolalla, described by some media as "the greatest Spanish science communicator on the web." A member of the 'Órbita Laika' program on TVE and the Big Van Ciencia group since 2013, Javier is also the creator of the science YouTube channels 'Date un Vlog,' 'Date un voltio,' and 'Date un mí.' On Saturday, the 28th, he will participate alongside CiTIUS researchers in the Ciencia Singular day to talk about people-centered Artificial Intelligence, Smart Technologies in the face of COVID, and many other highly interesting topics.
